The Quest for Freedom, a biography of Alexander Fyodorovich Kerensky published in June 2020, commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the death of the great socialist reformer who personified the Russian Revolution of February 1917 and yet who is remembered today, if at all, as 'the man who lost Russia'. In the first biography of Kerensky for more than thirty years, award-winning author Peter Alexander Thompson uses interviews with two of Kerensky's grandchildren, the Kerensky Family's private papers and Kerensky's own words to weave a compelling narrative that not only spans the entire revolutionary period but also covers World War I, the Russian Civil War and World War II.
